It would take something pretty compelling for me to try another IM service, as MSN and Yahoo! already have such a large user base and a fairly robust feature-set. Also, I'm not sure about an IM service that memorializes every moment of my life. I tend to agree with your thoughts on another “distracting” IM client.
